* Judge Theodore Botkin writes of the Larrabees: "H. P. Larrabee has one of the nicest families I ever met. His wife is an admirable woman, and the boys and girls have been raised and trained to be gentlemen and ladies. Mrs. Larrabee, whose run of three and a half miles to apprise me of accumulating dangers, saved my life perhaps, after the death of Sheriff Dunn." They were adherents of Judge Butkin in the Botkin-Wood feud which was so fiercely waged in southwestern Kausas only a few years ago.

Lane Family.
Lane was originally an English name, but became much "Irished " after the transplanting of branches of the family upon the soil of the "Green Isle," during the Ulster settlement. The surname has sometimes appeared as Mc- Lane and McClain. I find THOMAS LANE was one of the leasees of land in Gortgunan, Ireland, in 1631, for the term of 47 years.
Capt. John Lane,1 born in Limerick, Ireland,* was an early inhabitant of Newbury, Mass., where he evidently acquired his military title. He subse- quently came down to Winter Harbor, at the mouth of the Saco, and was commander at Fort Mary in 1717. He married Joanna Davidson, probably daughter of Daniel, of Newbury, in Nov., 1693; was at one time living in Hampton, and a child was born there, in 1701-2. He was a man of some prominence in Newbury. No connection known between him and others of the name in Hampton. He died soon after 1717 and was buried at the Pool in Biddeford. Children : ABIGAIL, b. Aug. 15, 1693, in Newbury; JOHN, born March 1, 1701-2, in Hampton, N. H .; LIVING, b. Nov. 13, 1704, in Newbury; MARY, b. in Feb., 1706.
Capt. John Lane,2 son of preceding, was in command at St. Georges in 1743, when he was recommended by prominent men as a suitable person for captain of one of four companies to be raised in Maine. He had command of Fort Halifax; was living at St. Georges in 1744. From his muster roll it appears that he died July 14, 1756, while on the expedition to Crown Point, and his son JOHN, then a lieutenant, assumed command. Tradition makes
*At the rooms of the York Institute, in Saco, may be seen many quaint articles that belonged to the military members of the Lane family. There is a long powder-horn, upon which the name " Brimfield " is carved, said to have been brought from Ireland by the first Capt. John Lane; a pocket-book carried through the Revolution by Capt John Lane, from Buxton ; saddle-bags and other heirlooms deposited there by the family. Many more curious things are said to be in pos- session of the descendants and of all these we would gladly write more particularly had wespace.

LANE FAMILY.
him go from Georges river to Boston, thence to Lake George, in New York, where he died at the age of 56. His chest, left in Boston, was not found. He was a prisoner with the Indians some years and in the Dartmoor prison in England; was licensed to keep a public house. He married Mary, daughter of Capt. Peter Nowell, of York, Me., and lived in that town. From his peti- tions we learn that he was at Somerset when the Indians were killed there; at Norridgewock when the Indians were killed there; that when at St. Georges he enlisted a company and was out after the St. John Indians all winter before the expedition to Louisburg; that he raised a company and served as captain in that expedition, where he was the first man wounded; that he was carried to Boston sick after the reduction of that place; that his house was burned by Indians, when the French and Indian war broke out ; that in going from Falmouth to Brunswick to post men he took cold; that he had a wife and three small children in 1747, and was confined to his house " just able to go from the Bead to the Fier." In consideration of his sufferings the General Court granted him £7: 10. During his illness he received at three several times ris- ing sixteen pounds from the court at Boston.
Capt. John Lane,3 son of preceding, born in York, July 4, 1734, was trained by military experience from his youth for a soldier's life. At the age of 20 he was appointed lieutenant under his father, and at one time had com- mand at Fort Halifax, on the Kennebec river, in the French war. When his father died, in 1756, the command devolved upon him. In the Revolutionary struggle he was an active and brave participant ; was appointed commander of a company in the spring of 1775, consisting of 120 men, raised by him and subordinate officers. He was a commissioner to treat with the Indians of the Penobscot tribe, then about to form an alliance with the British in Canada; in this undertaking he encountered every obstacle that British agents could put in his way, but was successful and prevailed upon Orono and several of his tribe to go with him to Cambridge, where a treaty. which was always strictly adhered to, was ratified. Immediately upon his return to Cambridge, he was joined by his recruits and took command at Cape Ann harbor. He was present when the famous prize, with ordinance and stores, was taken from the enemy, and there repulsed the British when they made an attempt to retake the prize. He was a heroic and efficient officer, and a man of strong mind, undismayed and invincible in all his undertakings, in which he exhibited much foresight. He was inspired by a true spirit of patriotism and was not actuated by merce- nary or ignoble purposes. He hated British oppression and zealously fought to resist it. In an obituary notice it was said: "As a relative and friend he was exemplary and faithful. He submitted to the relentless power of death with Christian calmness, fortitude, and resignation which characterized his life in its various relations. The evening before his death he summoned his chil- dren around his bed and admonished them to live in peace through the journey of life, and cautioned them against excessive sorrow at his departure." Capt. Lane settted in Hiram after the Revolution and removed thence to Brownfield and lived on Ten Mile brook, where he had a mill, and where, now in the woods, he had a child buried. He was buried in the old church-yard at Bux- ton Corner. He married first. Elizabeth, dau. of William Hancock; second, Mrs. Hannah, widow of Samuel Hazeltine, nee Boynton, and third, Hannah Bean, of Exeter, N. H. He is said to have had issue, twenty-two children, but record of eighteen, only, was found.
875
LANE FAMILY.
Capt. Daniel Lane,3 brother of Capt. John, born May 11, 1740, and when but a lad was serving as a soldier under his brother. His name appears on a muster roll of his father's company in 1754. He commanded a company in Col. Ichabod Alden's regiment from Jan., 1776, to Jan., 1780, when he was discharged from the service. He was taken prisoner by General Burgoyne's men in 1777, and stripped of his clothing, robbed of his horse, watch, and other articles valued at £45: 14: o. This with doctor's bill, while sick, and ex- penses while traveling home from Saratoga to Buxton, a journey of 400 miles, amounted to £167: 11: 11, and General Washington endorsed his claim. He was granted a parole of two months and visited his family. His pay as captain was twelve pounds per month, with six pounds "substance money." There are various petitions, depositions, receipts, power of attorney, and other papers in the state archives at Boston, which afford much interesting information re- specting the experiences of this Captain Lane while in the army. He pur- chased land in Buxton, in 1763, and lived some years at the Old Corner; his house there was burned down and he finally moved to Hiram,* where his brother, Capt. John, had settled, and there passed "the remnant of his days." His wife was Molly Woodman, to whom married Oct. 21, 1762. He had issue as will appear.
Capt. Jabez Lane,8 brother of preceding, was born Sept. 21, 1743, and died Apr. 30, 1830. He served in the army in Col. Thomas Nickson's regi- ment, Massachusetts line, as captain, and received a pension and land war- rant for three hundred acres of land granted Dec. 14, 1790. In the possession of his granddaughter, Mrs. Mehitable Lane, of Buxton, were many valuable documents relating to the army service of Capt. Jabez Lane; among them the names of those who had enlisted under him and received their continental bounty and of those who deserted ; also of clothing delivered to his company. It has been reported that Capt. Jabez fought a duel while in the army. He was at a banquet with some officers, and while somewhat hilarious from the effects of drinking a quarrel ensued, and for some remark by a Southerner that reflected upon the character of New England patriots Capt. Lane slapped his face. A challenge immediately followed, and they fought. Both were wounded-not seriously-and Capt. Lane, some years after his return, showed the scar on his side where the bullet entered. He married Sarah Woodman and settled in Buxton, where he spent all his civilian days; had a large family. His wife died Mar. 11, 1835.
Joanna Lane,3 sister of the three captains, was born Sept. 18, 1738, and died Oct. 19, 1827; married Isaac Hancock ; second, John Garland, who was an old-time tavern-keeper. She continued to entertain travelers long after her husband's death and became widely known and popular as Madam Garland. She was of great personal beauty, which attractiveness continued until old age. She was possessed of superior intelligence and business tact ; a lively, brilliant, and dignified lady of old-fashioned ways. She left numerous descendants.
*JUDGE CYRUS WOODMAN stated in "Buxton Centennial " that Capt. Daniel Lane and wife were buried near the spot where their son, Col. Isaac, was buried, but that no stones marked the spot. Hon. L. A. Wadsworth, of Hiram, informs me that Capt. Daniel was buried in the Spring cemetery in that town, and that his gravestone, when discovered, had sunken so far in the ground that the inscription could not be seen until it was taken out. His wife was probably laid down at his side.
